Instinct satisfaction cannot be the only goal in our lives.

For sex addicts, hookup apps can be incredibly problematic. For many of us, they are like crack cocaine, especially when we seek physical sexual contact as part of our addiction. The main appeal of dating apps is that they present us with a vast pool of potential sex partners readily available – helpfully arranged from nearest to furthest away, thanks to geolocation software. A person’s marital status, hobbies, job, religion, goals, and worldview don’t matter on these apps because they’re all about quick encounters. No mess, no fuss, just sex, thank you very much. Many of us post profiles on multiple apps at the same time, staying logged in 24/7 and compulsorily checking them. We may also find ourselves looking for the next sexual encounter before completing the current one. That’s the power of apps.
